Very good/nice service and delicious food for fair prices. In the old Town at Plaza nueva you can find this lovely restaurant. You can go there for Pinchos and having a drink, and also for a very good dinner. We can recommend one of the two available menus. You get starter, main and dessert for good prices of 39€ or 42€. We've been there a second time an ordered from the normal menu and got very good meals again. A little bit more expensive than the both menu's, but still ok. The service was very accommodating and very friendly (and funny) . The restaurant was good visited, but we had not to wait at any time. The wine recommendatation also was very good. In our opinion is one of the, or THE best restaurant in old Town Bilbao. PLEASE go there an have a nice time!!

I would avoid this place at all costs. I don’t know how they have high ratings on Google Maps. I first read about this place as it was featured in at a website but the place was more than a disappointment. The food was terrible. They felt not fresh at all and tastes either too salty or flavourless. The worst part of the bar is their sittings. Their chairs are extremely wobbly and unstable. At least 10 of them were broken but they didn’t bother to fix the chairs. It is hazardous for customers. One chair in particular is really wobbly and it’s right next to a set of staircase. If you tip over, you will be seriously injured. The washroom is also ridiculous. They don’t actually have a proper sink. As seen in the photo, there is a big bathtub full of dirty water and a faucet above for you to wash your hands.

We came here last Friday with a group of 15 people to try pinxtos. Despite the crowds at Aste Nagusia, we were served quickly, correctly and courteously. We took a mix of 30 pinxtos and although we did not always know what we were eating, everything tasted delicious. Afterwards, we enjoyed some more croquettes, Iberico ham and cheese, all accompanied by delicious white wine. We found the experience so enjoyable that on Sunday we reserved a table to eat a la carte. Once again, everyone enjoyed themselves! Small minus point: the dark bathrooms. Plus: the friendly service, who also spoke fluent English. My recommendation? You should all visit this place!

La Olla de Plaza Nueva is a rare blend of Pintxos and restaurant. The food is fantastic regardless. The service and management are friendly, efficient and fun. We went 4 times in a 5 day visit to Bilbao. The place is usually packed with occasional moments of quiet. Don't let a super busy place like this deter you. Everyone there is willing to help and speaks English should you need it. Kevin from Colombia is remarkable as a Pintxo bar server and also as a waiter. The place is very clean and served very fresh food. DONT MISS OUT ON A MOST MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE! EARRA! La Olla!

We had lunch in this restaurant in la plaza nueva in Bilbao. There were two menus available and we took the premium one around 40 euros each (without drinks). We enjoyed the food, Spanish ham was great, the artichokes were a little bit disappointing and steak and tuna were both good. For desserts we enjoyed the yogurt with mango much better than the more expensive torrijas. In general we enjoyed the food and the time at the restaurant, although I think price was a little bit too high for what you get.

Absolutely the best place for pinchos. Every item was bursting with flavor and I loved how they had everything from traditional to fusion selections. What a fantastic place and our waiter was charming and clearly loved his job. For our cool camarero :Too bad I didn't get your name but I hope you visit Tennessee for a music festival on day! After visiting La Olla all other pinchos will pale in comparison. So go at the end of your trip or just go here for pinchos!
